Add users to user groups 

There is a many-to-many relationship between users and user groups. A user group can contain multiple users, and a user can belong to multiple user groups.

Here are some ways to add users to user groups in OneID:

  • Add a user to a user group when creating a user.
  • Add a user to multiple user groups when editing a user.
  • Add multiple users to a user group when creating or editing a user group.

The following table shows the operations and details of these approaches:

Operation How many users can be managed? How many user groups can be managed?
Adding a user One One
Editing a user One Multiple
Adding a user group Multiple One
Editing a user group Multiple One

For example, when editing an existing user in OneID, you can add the current user to multiple user groups.
